Speaking to Fox News host Tucker Carlson Monday night, 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse revealed his original attorneys, Lin Wood and John Pierce, stranded him in jail while raising millions of dollars off of his cause.
"Lin Wood was raising money on my behalf, and he held me in jail for 87 days, disrespected my wishes, put me on media interviews which I should never have done. Which he said, 'Oh, you're going to go talk to the Washington Post,' which was not a good idea. Along with John Pierce, they said I was safer in jail instead of at home with my family," Rittenhouse said. "It was very long. I lost a lot of weight in there."
"Eighty-seven days of not being with my family for defending myself and being taken advantage of, being used for a cause by John Piece and Lin Wood," he continued, saying he didn't have running water and was unable to shower while incarcerated. "Trying to raise money for their own benefit, not to set me free."
Meanwhile, Rittenhouse's current counsel is working to secure bond funds raised by Wood and Pierce. According to the Chicago Tribune, Wood is claiming the money belongs to his group.

The 2 m was raised in less than a week
I think we are the ones that get to “learn the lesson” with those kinds of strategies while McConnell continues to enjoy the perks of holding high office.
Oh come on - you aren’t going to even defend this, are you?
Lin Wood is not associated with Trump lol. Trump even endorsed a guy running against him.
Definitely more going on... Lynn debunked and offered up proof & receipts on a radio program Monday! He’s also a defamation lawyer not a defense attorney. Strange indeed?
Refresh my memory. What was he running for? I seem to have forgot.
I don’t know any history about Lin Wood but no one gave money for Lin Wood Inc. they gave money for Kyle and his situation. Lin has made his nature known over the last 12 months and it smells bad and looks bad. I could be wrong but probably not.
I don’t need to defend Lin Wood he defended himself. 😏
